8-10-16 Technical employment in Santa Barbara, 2016 

Our August Presentation:
 
Our annual technical employment panel is always popular and informative. Find out how  economic recovery is affecting the Santa Barbara technical job market. Will job opportunities return? Will new job descriptions emerge? What skill sets are likely to be in demand, and what jobs are now hard to find or hard to fill? What are the predictions for future technical employment?


The Science and Engineering Council’s own Gary Kravetz will moderate a panel of technical recruiters and human resources managers from local technical companies. The panelists will discuss their views on the Santa Barbara technical job marketplace. Confirmed panelists include:
